The Chief of Naval Staff, Rear Admiral Awwal Gambo, says he will continue with the standard set by his predecessor to improve the Nigerian Navy and improve maritime security.
He said this during the taking over ceremony at the Naval Headquarters, Abuja.
He said the outgoing Naval Chief, Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas, achieved great feats in maritime security and development of the Nigerian Navy when he was at the helm of affairs, hence the standard must be maintained.
He thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for finding him worthy for the appointment as the Chief of the Naval Staff.
He urged the personnel of the Nigerian Navy to extend the same cooperation accorded his predecessor.
